What we're about

We have started the Outgoing Introverts of Phoenix for like-minded introverted, shy, nerdy, geeky people to meet and form friendships. If you have a hard time meeting new people, are new to the area, or are more comfortable with smaller group sizes this may be the Meetup for you. Our events are structured to remain small and comfortable for new people, creating an easygoing environment for our members to socialize and get to know one another. These events range from game nights, movie nights and meeting for coffee to special and local events like craft beer festivals or holiday celebrations.

The Outgoing Introverts of Phoenix is a group for adults ranging in age from 21-39. Having the age restriction removes liability issues at events where alcohol is served and also allows people in similar stages of their lives to connect. Some basic rules of our group include having a clear picture of yourself on your profile (so we can find you at our events!) and filling out everything in the questionnaire.

Thanks for your interest in our group, we hope to meet you soon! :)

Ultimate Frisbee

Rover Elementary School

Don't worry about Meetup RSVP numbers. The vast majority of our players are not on Meetup.
Come join my Sunday morning ultimate frisbee game. I've been playing with this group for years, and we typically have anywhere from 10 people on a slow day, to 20+ on a busy one. It's a great way to get some fun exercise in, and make new friends. We're not super strict about all the rules. All levels of experience welcome. For those of you unfamiliar with ultimate, think of it as a combination of soccer or football, but with a frisbee instead. Be sure to bring water, and wear cleats if you have them.

Check, Please! Arizona - Outgoing Introverts Edition - Via Della Slice Shop

Let's enjoy great food, drinks and company while we meet and critique some of the newest/best/most talked about restaurants in the valley. We will try a different restaurant each time (these will usually be picked from "Best of Phoenix" issues of Phoenix Magazine, Phoenix New Times and Check, Please! Arizona, AS WELL AS YOUR SUGGESTIONS). We will start by doing this once per month, but I may increase the frequency depending on interest.

This month, let's try one of the best, most talked about Pizza restaurants in the valley, Via Della Slice Shop.

There are far too many reviews to list, everything between 4-5 stars, 4.7/5 on google, 4.5/5 on yelp, 5/5 on facebook, etc.

There is not a Check Please for Via Della :sadpanda:

Book Club: As Long as the Lemon Trees Grow

Location visible to members

Salama Kassab was a pharmacy student when the cries for freedom broke out in Syria. She still had her parents and her big brother; she still had her home. She had a normal teenager’s life.

Now Salama volunteers at a hospital in Homs, helping the wounded who flood through the doors daily. Secretly, though, she is desperate to find a way out of her beloved country before her sister-in-law, Layla, gives birth. So desperate, that she has manifested a physical embodiment of her fear in the form of her imagined companion, Khawf, who haunts her every move in an effort to keep her safe.

But even with Khawf pressing her to leave, Salama is torn between her loyalty to her country and her conviction to survive. Salama must contend with bullets and bombs, military assaults, and her shifting sense of morality before she might finally breathe free. And when she crosses paths with the boy she was supposed to meet one fateful day, she starts to doubt her resolve in leaving home at all.

Soon, Salama must learn to see the events around her for what they truly are—not a war, but a revolution—and decide how she, too, will cry for Syria’s freedom.
